Update

Mom (Pat) is doing okay at this point. She had surgery on Saturday which we were told about on Friday night about 5:34pm. She needed to have blood clots removed from her arm, this was due to her arm not healing correctly from the previous surgery. The surgeon said this surgery went well and that he was able to remove the clots and clean out her arm, however she has some skin blisters because her skin is so thin and sensitive. The doctor told her today (Monday 11-8-10) that her liver counts were down, which is good news. Her stomach problems are getting better and she is eating full meals again. We were all hoping that she would be home for Thanksgiving but it looks she will be in the hospital again this year, but as long as we are all together it does not matter. She is improving but it is slow. She needs to recovery from the most recent surgery and have the GVH and cancer more under control, we are closer but still have a long way to go. As always thank you all for your love and support.
